Ticket packages have been combined if they are identical save for the day of the week. For example, 8C and 8D are the same concerts; the only difference is that 8C is for Thursday nights, while 8D is for Saturday nights. <\/p>\n<p>This chart doesn&#8217;t include concert series such as the <i>Distinguished Artists<\/i> series which share no concerts with any of the Masterworks concerts. <\/p>\n<p>Notes and changes: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Masterworks series grew from 21 to 22 concerts.     The extra concert was added to the 8[CD] series.     Extra concerts were also added to 7G and 4A,     bringing them to 8G and 5A.     The <i>Seattle Pops<\/i> grew from five to six concerts. \n<li>The 7[AB], 8[CD], and 7[EF] concert series do not overlap,     so you can create your own pseudo-series     by taking any two of them,     or recreate the 22-concert series by taking all three. \n<li>The 13-concert series is the same as the 8[CD]     and 7[EF] series combined, minus the     January 5 and March 16 concerts. \n<li>The <i>Symphony Kids<\/i> series no longer exists. <\/ul>\n<p>This purports to be the second season of a two-season cycle of Beethoven symphonies and piano concerti. Though when I checked this year&#8217;s and last year&#8217;s schedules, it looks like they forgot the third and seventh symphonies, and they included the third piano concerto twice and the first and second not at all. Math may not be their strong suit. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a special <i>Shostakovich Concerto Festival<\/i> that performs all of Shostakovich&#8217;s concertos. I counted. They&#8217;re all there. <\/p>\n<p>Hilary Hahn visits Seattle twice this season, once to perform Bruch&#8217;s Violin Concerto on the weekend of February 9, and again to perform in recital on October 30 as part of the <i>Distinguished Artists<\/i> series. A group of us attended one of her recitals a decade ago. She wore a floor-length A-line green dress with sparkly silver shoes. I remember it because we amused ourselves by describing her dress as a Christmas tree, and the shoes were presents that peeked out. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pocket reference guide for 2016\/2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1069,"featured_media":111744,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[103],"class_list":["post-93094","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-oldnewthing","tag-non-computer"],"acf":[],"blog_post_summary":"<p>The pocket reference guide for 2016\/2017.<\/p>\n","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93094","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1069"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=93094"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93094\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111744"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=93094"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=93094"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/oldnewthing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=93094"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
